Win Passes To The St. Louis Advance Screening of BEAST Starring Idris Elba

By  | 

THIS SUMMER… STAY QUIET.  BE STILL.  PRAY TO SURVIVE.  UNIVERSAL PICTURES PRESENTS IDRIS ELBA IN BEAST.  RATED R.  ONLY IN THEATERS AUGUST 19TH.

Sometimes the rustle in the bushes actually is a monster.

IDRIS ELBA (Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, The Suicide Squad) stars in Beast, a pulse-pounding new thriller about a father and his two teenage daughters who find themselves hunted by a massive rogue lion intent on proving that the savannah has but one apex predator.

Elba plays Dr. Nate Samuels, a recently widowed husband who returns to South Africa, where he first met his wife, on a long-planned trip with their daughters to a game reserve managed by Martin Battles (SHARLTO COPLEY, Russian Doll series, Maleficent), an old family friend and wildlife biologist. But what begins as a journey of healing jolts into a fearsome fight for survival when a lion, a survivor of blood-thirsty poachers who now sees all humans as the enemy, begins stalking them.

From visceral, experiential filmmaker BALTASAR KORMÁKUR, the director of Universal’s Everest, 2 Guns and Contraband, Beast is produced by WILL PACKER p.g.a., the blockbuster producer of Girls Trip, the Ride Along franchise, and ten movies that have opened No. 1 at the U.S. box office—including Night School, No Good Deed and Think Like a Man—by Baltasar Kormákur p.g.a. and by JAMES LOPEZ p.g.a. (The Photograph, Little, What Men Want). The screenplay is by RYAN ENGLE (Rampage, Non-Stop) from a story by JAIME PRIMAK SULLIVAN (Breaking In, executive producer The Baxters). The film is executive produced by BERNARD BELLEW and Jaime Primak Sullivan.

The Advance Screening is on Tuesday Aug 16th 7pm at AMC Esquire 7

Beast

The film’s Director of Photography is Oscar® winner PHILIPPE ROUSSELOT AFC, ASC (A River Runs Through It, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them), the Production Designer is JEAN-VINCENT PUZOS (The Lost City of Z, Amour) and the Costume Designer is MOIRA ANNE MEYER (Redeeming Love, The Silent Army). Beast is edited by JAY RABINOWITZ ACE (Requiem for a Dream, 8 Mile) and the music is by Academy Award®-winning composer STEVEN PRICE (Gravity, Last Night in Soho).

Beast was shot entirely in South Africa. No actual lions were used for principal photography in the film. State-of-the art advanced visual effects, unlike any used before, were used to create the film’s principal rogue lion.
